The Bar/Lounge at Le Sereno

"Amenities: 24-hour Room Service, Bar/lounge, Beach, Pool View the entire Hot List of the travel world's most noteworthy debuts in 2006 ›"

"Bedlike poolside lounges for two set the romantic tone, but active types will adore being in the island's epicenter of water sports, with a great dive shop, water toys such as Jet Skis, and kitesurfing a few steps down the beach"

"For privacy and uninterrupted views, you can’t do better than booking into the “Grand Suite Plage” category, since the 1,200-square-foot digs come with private terraces and loungers that face the sparkling bay"

"Spa services, gym, pool, bar, gourmet dining and 24-hour room service"

"Barth's -- and the semi-private beach is not as pretty or wide as the island’s numerous other strips of sand"
